Re: [CBQ] CUS train announcement board

Ray,

I know I have a picture of one from the south side of CUS.  I think it was one 
for a GM&O train.  This one was right by the track entrance.  I'll look tonight.

Subject: [CBQ] CUS train announcement board


 

I recently acquired a Suburban train announcement board from the CUS that lists 
"BURLINGTON ROUTE SUBURBAN DEPARTURES - DOWNERS GROVE AND ALL INTERMEDIATE 
STATIONS"

It is a black heavy canvas that hung under the track numbers at Chicago Union 
Station. I have been trying to locate photos inside CUS that would show a 
sample of these announcement boards and have looked in all of my Q books and 
can not find any photos. 

I am sure that those of you that have traveled through the CUS remember what I 
am talking about. 

I would really like to find a photo from inside of CUS that shows an example of 
these announcement boards. 

If anyone can direct me to such photos, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks
